Hi All,

I have one question regarding GDG version number(Vnn). When GDG version will change ? I tried to create 9999(G9999V00) + 1 version but it didn't change, it has started creating versions again as G0001V00.

It's been discussed here a couple of times recently. I've never done it. You'll probably never do it. It does not happen automatically. It is there as a version of a generation, used in place of any earlier version. Don't worry about it, you may never even see it.

A version number other than V00 must be manually created with the fully qualified name (that is, you CANNOT create one by using a relative generation number).

Thanks a lot Bill & Robert for your replies.

Hello,

What is your concern/interest about Versions (rather than Generations)?

The intent being to replace a given generation with a corrected version while maintaining its place in the chronology. V00 will no longer be available (or, if you are very sloppy in your correction, V01 will no longer be there when you create V02 - never seen a V02).
